Fallout: New Vegas Dev Wanted to Include Hilarious Vegas-Style Wedding

Too expensive to pull off.

Fallout: New Vegas director Josh Sawyer has revealed a hilarious Vegas-style wedding scene he wanted to include in Obsidian's post-apocalyptic action RPG.

"There's a character in the game named Cass—and she's a hard drinking lady—and we had this idea of her and the courier getting into this drinking match and blacking out," Sawyer said on the latest episode of IGN Expert Mode.

That sequence would have then been followed by a "cutscene where you wake up but you're still kind of blacked out and you're in front of the king—who's essentially an Elvis impersonator—and he's marrying your characters."

After that, Sawyer said the player would black out again, and then "you wake up and you have wedding rings and you basically just got this Vegas-style wedding."

Sawyer explained that while "it would have been very nice" to include the scene in the game, "cutscenes were a thing that were very hard for us to do and very expensive for us to do," and given the small number of players that would actually see the sequence, it just wasn't something Obsidian could afford to include.
